Complete Text of Address to House
Gershaw, Monday, May 5th
Made by F. W.
Mr F. W. GERSHAW (Medicine
Hat)— First of all, 1 wish to congrat-
ulate the Minister of Finance (‘Isley)
upon the budget, which has been well
accepted in the country and certainly
by the members of this house. In or-
der to avoid repeating what has al-
ready been said, and in view of the
latitude which you, Mr Speaker, have
so graciously allowed in this debate
I shall confine my remarks almost en-
tirely to rehabilitation problems. At
the moment we all realize that the
war is the overshadowing issue. It is
being waged in offices, factories and
workshops, and in the remote parts of
the country men are saving their
money to buy war savings certificates,
women are working long hours to pro-
vide comforts for the soldiers, and
even children are bringing pennies
to school as their contribution. No
sacrifice is too great to help the val-
lant forces of democracy in_ this
great struggle. It is true that the
months ahead may be dark, but be
yond that darkness there is the light
of victory. Let us hope that with that
victory there will come better socia!
conditions, more equality of opport
unity and happier homes undarkened
by fear of unemployment and poverty
Surely it is only the part of wisdom
to prepare at this time for living con-
ditions for the tens of thousands who
will be released from war work and
for the strangers who will come to our
land. Some of the plans I will men-
tion will cost a little money, but many
of them can be carried out practical-
ly without expense.
First of all, look at the live stock
industry. The tending of flocks and
herd is the first industry of which we
have any records, and all down
through the ages it has been the
principal occupation of mankind. Wes-
tern Canada supported great herds of |
buffalo in days long gone by. We
know this because of Indian records
and because there are deep paths that
can be seen to this day on the hill
sides, paths made by great herds of |
buffalo as they wended their way to
watering places. As the buffalo dis-
appeared, large numbers of attle
spread over the western prairies;
while there was the open range, ran-
chrs prospered and were happy; and
the romance of the west, with all that
it means in the way of early charac-
teristics, owes its origin to these
early adventures, They lived their
lives in the open and were generous
and sociable. No one was ever turn-
ed away hungry from their doors, In
fact, their attitude to life was expres-
sed in the words—
Ask why the eagle soars in air
And builds on high his craggy nest;
Ask why the fishes swim so deep
Then ask me why I lave the west.
It was this whole-hearted, open
handed mode of life that made the
west a place where the smile was a
little brighter and the welcome to
strangers a little more spontaneous
As time went on, this industry fell on
evil days, and support was needed in
order to assure the stability and the
security of the ranches, A great deal
has been done along these lines and
{f the policies are pursued and pur-
sued vigorously, benefits will be re
flected in every line of Canadian act-
ivity.
Recently a writer by the name of Mr
G. M. Short, in discussing conditions
in Europe, pointed out that grain pro-
duction was being expanded there in
spite of the terrors of war, but that
the herds were being depleted, and
therefore we can look forward to a
market for breeding stock, meats and
dairy products in those countries
when the war is over.
To illustrate how tariff conditions
can ruin an industry, I would point
out that the greatest blow to the ran-
ching industry came in 1930 when the
Hawley-Smoot tariff was imposed by
the United States. It placed a tax of
$3 per cwt. on all cattle entering that
market and weighing over 700 pounds
and $2.50 per cwt. on those weighing
less than 700 pounds. During the pre-
ceding five years the average num-
ber of cattle shipped to the United
States was 142,123. When the blow
fell in 1930, the export to that mar
ket dropped to 19,483, and during the
next five years it declined until it
reached the low level of 9,936. It is
true that at that time great efforts
were made to develop the far-away
British market in competition with
cattle from Irelard and other count-
tries, but only 30,670 were annually
shipped. The indutry was not sustain-
ed; prices fell from 2 to 3 1-2 cents
@ pound, with losses to ranchers, and
herds could not be kept up.
| Then in 1935, with the change of
government, and greatly to the credit
of this administration, the successful
United States-Canada agreement was
zonsummated. Duties were cut from
$3 to $2 and then to $1.50 per cwt.,
and a generous quota was arranged
éor Canadian cattle. There was great
eejoicing. There was joy in the home.
of the cattlemen of the country be
vause they felt they would be able to
arrange a standard of living befitting
people in their walk of life. However
it happened that after 1935 the suc
teeding years were years of drought.
under the
forage
Prairie grass curled up
blistering rays of the
crops failed to grow; streams that
never failed before dried up; and
these summer conditions were follow-
ed by such hard winters that the cat-
tlemen were not able to supply the
United States market and, in some
instances, relief measures had to be
taken.
And at that time, the late Hon,
Robert Weir was Miniister of Ag-
riculture, and at this time | should
like to pay a tribute for the contri
bution he made to agriculture. He
brought forward the Prairie Farm Re-
habilitation Act to rehabiliitate the
drought and soil-drifting areas.. Two
years later, under the present min-
ister, the scope o fthat act was en-
larged to include land utilization and
land settlement with all that that in-
roived in the way of surveys, gather:
ing of records of practical experience,
soil analysis, and so forth, over a wide
erea, roughly bbounded by the Pall
{ser triangle and including a great
part of three provinces. This study
of conditions was founded on the bed
rock of actual experience by getting
tnformation from ranchers who had
tived there up to fifty years, and also
pon the cultural results worked out
sun,
| by the various experiment farms. It
| Was not a method of teaching the
| farmer how to farm or the rancher
to ranch; agricultural improve-
ment associations, shelter-belt assoc-
dations and grazing associations were
founded so that the _ knowledge of
those engaged in the industry could
be assembled and be made use of by
those concerned. Soil surveys were
made over 100,000,000 acres of land;
community pastures were established
4nd water conservation was encour-
aged. If any man had a ravine or a
gully or a farm and felt that the
6pring run-off of water could be kept
there, he was and still is given free
engineering service and advice as to
how best to construct that dug-out or
water reservoir or small irrigation
system which he might wish to make.
In addition, he was given a fixed sum
for every cubic yard of earth he mov-
ed in bringing about that construc-
tion.
This meant a great deal. It meant
that he could have a garden, he could
have milch cows, his home could be
made more homelike. Some 17,000 of
these structures have been made, and
although the needs of the war are
great, I believe that a mistake was
made in reducing the vote for the Pra-
irie Farm Rehabilitation Act, because
it meant that this work could not be
extended as it should. It is true that
bonuses are given, but the money is
how
soon spept, whereas the construction |
of works such as these is of a perma-
nent nature and will be a blessing to
thoze living on that land for decades
to come. Long and bitter experience
has convinced us that the rainfall
cannot be depended upon. There will
be wet years, but there will be many
dry years too when the grass will fail,
when milch cows cannot be kept,
when food for stock cannot be saved.
Therefore, if every cattlemen and
farmer could have a reliable supply
of water to provide dairy and garden
products for himself and his family,
he would be in a much better position.
The value of these things cannot be
estimated in money.
Through the west some larger irri-
gation schemes were undertaken, and
partly onstructed, and those should
be completed as soon as possible; that
could be done at comparatively small
cost. As has been pointed out by sev-
eral hon, members, we are in great
danger of losing our share of the wa-
ters of the international streams, and
there is great need for action and ac-
tion inearnest so that our share of
these waters shall be preserved for
future generations. In southern Al-
berta there are great drought-stricken
areas, and impoverished people are
living on that land with a low stand-

ard of living. In the springtime froin
the hills and mountains small streams
are running down, and their water is
not being made use of, although so
vitally needed. Eleven million acre-
feet of water which is the precious
heritage of the people of that coun-
try is flowing to the ocean uwn-used.
There are about 50,577 acres of land
irrigated, and there could be three
times that amount of land irrigated
in that country. The climate is suit-
able, the soil is fertile, experienced
management is available: the one
thing that is needed is water storage
facilities.
There are some 52,000,000 acres of
non-wheat land in the west. I was
surprised to learn that 10,000,000 ac-
res of that land had been settled, but
that the settlers had been forced to
leave because they could not make a
living and that 10,000,000 acres
now abandoned land. In order to deal
with that Hon. Doctor Motherwell,
when he was Minister of Agriculture
started a ranching experimental sta-
tion at Manyberries. There they have
studied every branch of ranching
practice, methods of re-grassing, re-
lative values of different grasses,
costs of producing range cattle and
sheep, the use of salt, relative in-
creases of weight for different classes
of cattle, carrying capacity, ways of
dealing with poisonous weeds, rota-
tion of grazing and many other mat-
ters of that kind. In that ranching ex-
perimental station they have develop-
ed the value of crested wheat grass
which has saved many farms in this
country and which today is being used
extensively for runways on our differ-
ent airports.

A Statement by
the Minister of Finance
In money alone, this war is costing
Canada in round figures, $4,000,000 a
day. That is three and one-quarter
times the daily cost of the last year of
the last war. This conflict costs so
much more because it is a battle of
giant, swift machines... as well as of
men. And to build other than the very
best machines would be futile. They
must be worthy of our men.
Canada dare not... and will not...
sacrifice men for lack in quality or
quantity of fighting machines. Hence
we must produce them on a scale
hitherto undreamed of.
To do this, Canada needs now to
borrow from her citizens at least
$600,000,000 in addition to the
revenue raised by taxes. Toobtain this
money Canada will on June 2nd offer
Victory Bonds.
Fortunately, Canadians have the
money to buy these Victory Bonds.
This is shown by a greatly expanded
national income and by record savings
deposits.
If every person who has savings or who
can make payments out of wages or
income will invest in Victory Bonds,
the Loan will be quickly subscribed.
But the wholehearted support of every
citizen is necessary.
What Canadians have done before,
Canadians can and will do again. Our
population was less than nine millions
in 1918 and 1919. Yet in November,
1918, our people invested $616,000,000
in Victory Bonds. Eleven months
later, in October, 1919, they invested
$572,000,000. The total subscribed for
twelve millions, the nation that did it
before can do it again—and in greater
measure.
The terms of the Loan will be an-
nounced May 3let. Get ready to buy
every Bond that. you can.

DR GERSHAW WRITES|
FROM OTTAWA
This year’s Budget is the biggest
and most complicated that has ever
been given to a Canadian Parliament
Higher taxes have been levied and
new fields of taxation entered. For
the first time high succession duties
are being imposed. This brought a
lot of discussion. One Opposition
group holding out against it the
tates proposed and another group
at
supporting even higher rates. Special |
consideration is given to soldiers de-
pendents. A widow is allowed exemp-
tion up to $30,000 and each child of a
deceased soldier up to $7500. Like in
the Income Tax, the rates are gradua-
ted being higher on the larger estates.
The duty on Woollens, boots and
shoes, etc. coming from Great Britain,
have been reduced in a move toward
free trade with the Mother country.
The War production is speeding up
all over Canada and the money costs
ahe not being considered where effic-
ient results can be obtained. (96)
ninety-six ships are being built in B
C. The Maritime Provinces are
busy that coal cannot be shipped east
Tank construction and Airplane pro
duction is going on in the Central
Provinces. One contract alone in Al
berta calls for the production of 15
Navai guns and 15 enormous gun
mountings each week where the week
ly wages amount to $140,000. Where
ever there is power contracts are
likely to be given.
Thousands of pilots of the Royal
Air Force and the Royal Canadian
Air Force have jumped from shatter
ed aircraft by parachute and have liv
ed to fly and fight again,
The long drop from the sky under
a billowing canopy of silk has become
a commonplace to aerial fighters.
Perhaps the most vivid description of
a wartime parachute jump that
written by Flying Officer Ralph
Hope. His story as related in a British
Air Ministry news bulletin, follows—
“We were at about 21,000 feet when
we got involved with a squadron of

and as 1 turned to see what was up,
| my controls felt funny, a lot of red
| sparks and black smoke appeared
round my feeft, and a cloud of white
smoke — probably glycol — began
streaming back from the engine. The
aircraft began going downhill fast, I
slid back the hood and began to get
out; my goggles were whipped off
and my helmet began to lift up in the
slipstream,
“| realized I had not undone my
straps so I pulled out the retaining pin
}and stood up, standing on anything
which came handy (the seat, the in-
| strument panel, or the stick, I don’t
really know.) The air seized hold of
me and there was a wrench as my ox-
ygen tube snapped off (1 had forgot-
ten to undo it), and shot out into the
sky.
“The aeroplane disappeared. It was
nice and cool falling. I was head
| down of course, but found the posi
tion quite comfortable. There was no
sense of speed, or any feeling of fal-
ling. I had a look at the clouds be!ow
me (they were at least about 4000-
5000 feet) and then collected the odd
bits of my helmet and had a look ar-
ound. My parachute was still on my
seat, both my boots were on, and I
didn’t seem to have lost anything ex-
|}cept my goggles and _ handkerchief
and map. They must have fallen out
of the pockets in my knees when I
first went upside down.
“After a while I thought about pul-
ling the rip-cord. I seemed to have
fallen a goodish way, so I pulied. The
canopy streamed out, there was a
hard jerk, and there I was, right side
up, quite comfortable, and floating
slowly —oh, so slowly — earthwards.
1 was at about 9 or 10 thousands feet
then, so I had fallen for about 8 or 9
thousand feet (from about 18,000
feet) and might have fallen further
with advantage.

The government is insisting that the
new corn be stacked on the farms on

have eliminated any possibiity of sub-

carry the huge unwanted corn sur-

LIONS § ENTERTAIN
‘6-IN-I’ CANVASSERS
The Lions entertained nearly twen-
ty canvassers on the recent War Ser-
vices Fund Campaign, and the War
Savings Certificates at their meeting
on Thursday last. The meeting was
arranged as a tribute to their efforts,
and during the evening, the Lion Pre-
sident summed up their work during
the last few months of war. Taking
into account all avenues of revenue,
he stated that they had raised some-
thing like twenty thousand dollars in
this area since the war, and felt that
they really deserved congratulations.
Messrs Hutchcroft and MacNeill, of
the Calgary Headquarters of the Vic-
tory Loan campaign, were present
and both gave the members brief and
enlightening addresses on the need
and the uses for the present loan
campaign. Harry Hutchcroft, a well-
known cheer leader, was back in the
saddle once more, and led the gather-
ed members and their visitors in a
hearty round of songs.
A special feature of the evening
was the presentation to five members
of 100 per cent attendance awards for
the past year.

Alberta is faced with the worst tea-
cher shortage in its history, John W.
Barnett, secretary of the Alberta Tea-
chers’ association, declared Friday.
Decreasing normal school enrolment
and heavy enlistments among male
teachers are “making the situation
worse every day,” said Mr Barnett.
“In peacetime, Alberta needs 650 new
teachers every year to maintain the
supply. In wartime the need is even
greater, Approximately 600 new tea-
chers will graduate from Calgary
and Edmonton normal schools _ this
year.
